3tfseph JttcCiirne(J “My head’s all right, my heart’s meller, But I’m an easy going feller.” What 0! Look hither! what have we here? Joe is one of our hen-pecked masculine members who handles our cash and draws our portraits free of charge. When Joe takes the floor to express his opinions on a subject, we all hold our breath and listen, for we do not wish to miss a word on these rare occasions. We must not omit saying that Joe is our Senior athlete and has done good work in both basketball and football, since entering High School. But don’t talk of girls to that young man. He doesn’t believe in them. flattie -iRritcnue “Shoo! Fly, don’t bother me.” Here is another of the bright, studious members of our illustrious class. Her note-books are models of excellence and, as frequently happens to models, they are used as such by her classmates. One of Hattie’s troubles, and not the least of these, is the governing of her “kid sister,” who tries her older sister’s sense of propriety sorely. But in spite of these domestic skirmishes, this member of our class manages to get her studies well and she may forever be seen translating Cicero or German. Our best wishes go with her as she goes through life for we know that she will find much in it that is agreeable and worth while. Haammth “Trusting to luck.” Raymond is one of the ideas of our class who is always very much concerned as to whether his socks and ties harmonize. He knows a “Lott” about his subjects, and one of his peculiarities is the way he recites German. Raymond’s avocation is drafting, and all of his school books are artistically decorated. He is short in stature, but he’s all there, nevertheless. Raymond has been one of the advertising managers of our “Tiger Lily,” both this year and last year, and in this work has been very efficient and successful. There is a rumor about that he is preparing for college, and w e hope he will succeed if he goes there. .itttlbrei) tDuirett “In arguing too she owned her skill, For e’en though vanquished, she could argue still.” Here she is! Our class president! Who knows where w'e could have found one more capable of holding the position? Mildred has a cheery disposition, but this picture must have been taken w'hen we had forgotten to pay our class dues, for the only time her temper becomes ruffled is when we forget those dues, or call her “Milly,” a name which she considers beneath her dignity. She believes in upholding women’s rights and airs her views on this subject whenever opportunity is offered her. One marked trait of Mildred is her convincing style of argument, used especially in U. S. History class. Her greatest ambition is toward a literary profession. but she intends to spend a year or tw'o in teaching.

 £i tta .Jfiiwtt “She’s just the quiet kind, whose nature never varies.” This dimpled, modest, little girl comes from Turtle Point, but brought none of the bustle and excitement of the city with her. She was with us as a Freshman in 1911, but spent her Sophomore and Junior years in Crafton High School, near Pittsburg, only to return to us again for her Senior year. Edna intends to teach and her quiet and dignified demeanor will, no doubt, impress her pupils as it has us. -ittarijaret Jfmtchetm “If to her lot some female errors fall, Look on her face and you’ll forget them all.” Margaret is the belle of our class, and a favorite with all. She came from Smethport High School to our school in 1913, and has since that time, taken part in our work and play with great zest. Margaret has held creditably many offices during her High School career, even going so far as to hold a seat in the Student Council, when that august body was in force. It seemed almost a miracle to see Margaret sitting very properly in her back seat, eyeing all culprits severely. But human nature is human nature and such an unnatural condition could exist only for a few days. Then she would again be enjoying herself in her whole-hearted way. She is thinking of a musical career and we know she will succeed if she enters upon it. Unfit jHcitrltitm “She hath an abundance of learning.” This is tl.e likeness of Ruth Meacham, our class secretary. She seems to be one of the few who comes to school merely to imbibe knowledge, but if you have the good fortune to be with her when her Physics experiments are written up, and her lessons for the following day studied, she is just as jolly as one could wish. Ruth entered our High School in 1912, and though she had to stay out of school for one term because of ill health, she worked hard and will graduate with the rest of her classmates who started with her in 1912. Her record has been one of the best throughout her High School course, and this splendid record will no doubt be continued through her teaching career.
